Compare plans
Is URL BOT free to start?

Yes. Create a free account and start shortening links, tracking clicks and protecting traffic right away — no credit card required.

How accurate are the click numbers?

Every click is verified against live threat intelligence before it's counted, so bots and fake traffic never inflate your stats.

How does Bot Shield decide what to block?

Each request gets a threat score from signals like VPN, datacenter and Tor origin, request patterns and known-bad ranges. High-scoring traffic is blocked before it reaches your link.

Can I use my own domain?

Yes. URL BOT is self-hosted and runs entirely on your own domain, so every branded link reinforces your identity.

Do shortened links expire?

No. Links work permanently unless you delete them, and you can update a destination any time without changing the short URL.
